    your 02

    I like the door panels....they have an early 911 r gruppe look.

    What do they screw into?....sheet metal?

    Did you flock the center console?..or is it covered w/ some cloth?

    Looks like a nice fun period hot rod.....not a nut and bolt over the top resto.

    re alignment:...all an o2 really has is toe!


    I had an 02( and have 1 now too) in 79....we ran eccentric lca bolts up frt to get camber adjustment.

    For the rear you can invert your subframe bushings to reduce neg camber on a very low car.

    what shocks and springs r u running.

    i should read the whole thread...sorry.

    just got an alignment done and the tech said he could barely do any aligning because of how low my car was and the lack of "adjustability".
    I guess I will be spending some money on camber plates and weld in camber and tow adjustments before i save for a motor.

    finely got the interior done and put together today. im happy with it all. it's no show car but it's perfect for what i want out of it.
    put some rhino liner on the floor and made a new parcel shelf panel together. i also put some padding on the top part of my roll bar so i dont smack my head on it to hard.




    i want to make some aluminum plates to put in the area where the heater control panel was. maybe later on i can put some switches in them.

    about as much as my 11 year old nephew. i'd say 80-90lbs. maybe a bit less.

    i got some door cards done today. im not %100 happy with them just because some of the holes for the door handles and stuff were a bit off and they have a bit of glue over spray here and there. they will do for now though. at some point ill re do them again.
    i reused the stock window trim/seals.
    i used masonite.



    glued some cheap plastic drop cloth to the back to water proof it.

    black felt.

    all done.

    got it used from blunt for $280. with shipping a 4 point bar from autopower will run you about $400 + about $150 in shipping. not sure how much a new 4 point kirk bar like the one i have would run you seeing as they have no prices posted on the web site.
    try and buy a used one. roll bars are one of those things that are best used because you pay half the price and with some new paint (rattle can!) they are good as new!
    love the 4 point bar i have! it tide the car together more then i thought it would, and i feel safer. i think i will add some pieces on to it later on like a cross bar and some bars that go threw to both front and back suspension towers.
    im going to buy the stuff i need to do my door cards tomorrow. ill do a write up with pictures on the faq.
    im excited!

    How much did that roll bar run you? That would be perfect for my 74.
